API_DATASOURCE.REFRESHROW behaviour

Hi Formspider,

It looks like api_datasource.refreshrow does not execute a dtabase query to refresh the row if the row in the datasource is not in a changed state.

Case: I open the application in session 1. I open the application a second time in session 2. I open the same panel with grid in both sessions and query the same record. In session 1, i change a record column value and commit. In session 2, without changing anything to the record, i do api_datasource.refreshrow. I expected to see the changed row, but i dont see the changes from session 1. If in session 2 i change a column value, and then do api_datasource.refreshrow, i do see the changed row...

It looks like Formspider does not requery the row from the database when the row in the datasource is not in a changed state. I would expect the refreshrow to always refresh from the database.

Can you tell me if this behaviour is as designed, or if it is a bug?

Best regards,
Michiel A.

Hi Michiel,

It seems like a bug. I tried to replicate it in a simple application that I build but it seems to work as you have expected, I guess that your case is more complicated than my simple application :). Can you provide more details please? Is there any filter applied on this datasource? Which fetch mode are you using for this datasource?

Thanks, Ibrahim

Hi Ibrahim,

You are right, it was in my code. Before i refresh i query the rowstatus by calling api_datasource.getrowstatus (because i dont want to refresh if it is a new row) But if forgot to NVL the getrowstatus, because rowstatus returns null for unchanged records..

So it was a bug in my code,

Thanks, Michiel A.
